Es wäre ein Schaden für die Demokratie, wenn eine Verwaltung rechtswidrige Verfahren zuließe. Aber ist es nicht ein größerer Schaden, wenn staatliche Verwaltung mit parteipolitischer Führung rechtmäßige Verfahren versuchen durch vorgeschobene Bedenken zu verhindern, statt dem Volk zu seinem Recht zu verhelfe?
Dann muss man sich fragen, wem der Staat dient: willkürlichen Parteiinteressen oder dem Willen des Volkes?

SuperSONIC: Cloud-Native Infrastructure for ML Inferencing
The increasing computational demand from growing data rates and complex machine learning (ML) algorithms in large-scale scientific experiments has driven the adoption of the Services for Optimized Network Inference on Coprocessors (SONIC) approach. SONIC accelerates ML inference by offloading it to local or remote coprocessors to optimize resource utilization. Leveraging its portability to different types of coprocessors, SONIC enhances data processing and model deployment efficiency for cuttin…

Chemical transformation of CO in evolving protoplanetary discs across stellar masses: a route to C-rich inner regions
Protoplanetary discs around Very Low Mass Stars (VLMS) show hydrocarbon-rich MIR spectra indicative of C/O>1 in their inner discs, in contrast to discs around higher-mass hosts which mostly show O-bearing species. One scenario proposed to elevate C/O in VLMS inner discs is the advection of O-depleted gas from the outer disc. However, if CO gas remains abundant, C/O can be at most ~1. We test if chemical transformation of CO into other species allows this transport scenario to produce C/O signif…

FashionPose: Text to Pose to Relight Image Generation for Personalized Fashion Visualization
Realistic and controllable garment visualization is critical for fashion e-commerce, where users expect personalized previews under diverse poses and lighting conditions. Existing methods often rely on predefined poses, limiting semantic flexibility and illumination adaptability. To address this, we introduce FashionPose, the first unified text-to-pose-to-relighting generation framework. Given a natural language description, our method first predicts a 2D human pose, then employs a diffusion mo…

Excluding Pinched Spheres
The pinched sphere is the pseudo-surface $\mathbb{S}^{\circ}_0$ obtained by identifying two distinct points of the sphere. We provide a structural characterization of graphs excluding an $\mathbb{S}^{\circ}_0$-embeddable graph as a minor. Given a graph $G$ and a vertex set $X$, the bidimensionality of $X$ in $G$ is the maximum $k$ such that $G$ contains the $(k\times k)$-grid as an $X$-rooted minor, i.e., there exists a minor model of the $(k \times k)$-grid in~$G$ such that every branchset of …

A Real-time Endoscopic Image Denoising System
Endoscopes featuring a miniaturized design have significantly enhanced operational flexibility, portability, and diagnostic capability while substantially reducing the invasiveness of medical procedures. Recently, single-use endoscopes equipped with an ultra-compact analogue image sensor measuring less than 1mm x 1mm bring revolutionary advancements to medical diagnosis. They reduce the structural redundancy and large capital expenditures associated with reusable devices, eliminate the risk of …

Through the Looking Glass: Bitcoin Treasury Companies
Bitcoin treasury companies have taken stock markets by storm amassing billions of dollars worth of tokens. More than a hundred companies active in various crypto-tokens, not just Bitcoin, are listed. The ability to generate leverage, for example stemming from borrowing collateralized by stock portfolios, helps to understand this phenomenon. In addition, the extension of the binary-choice Kelly criterion to incorporate uncertainty in the form of the Kullback-Leibler divergence or more generall…

BPD-Neo: An MRI Dataset for Lung-Trachea Segmentation with Clinical Data for Neonatal Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a common complication among preterm neonates, with portable X-ray imaging serving as the standard diagnostic modality in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). However, lung magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) offers a non-invasive alternative that avoids sedation and radiation while providing detailed insights into the underlying mechanisms of BPD. Leveraging high-resolution 3D MRI data, advanced image processing and semantic segmentation algorithms can be deve…
